With each new cycle in the crypto market, meme coins consolidate their space, attracting an audience ranging from beginner investors to veterans curious about the explosive (and risky) potential of these assets.
In 2025, BNB Chain — a blockchain powered by Binance — continues to gain traction as a versatile ecosystem that is fast and offers lower fees than other popular networks.
While in the past, attention has been focused on blockchains like Ethereum and Solana, BNB Chain is now showing signs that it could also become a breeding ground for the next wave of meme coins. The combination of transaction costs, speed, and Binance’s interest in incentivizing the creation of innovative projects suggests that now could be the ideal time to see what emerges on the network.
Below, we highlight five meme coins that are already well known in the crypto world, but that in 2025 could benefit even more from the BNB Chain. Let's understand why they could be on your radar this year, as we have already highlighted in another text for 2024.
Why BNB Chain?
BNB Chain is designed to provide fast and low-cost transactions. By 2025, the infrastructure and tools for developing new tokens are more mature, making it easier to launch projects. Additionally, Binance, the world’s largest exchange, continues to encourage the creation of new tokens and solutions, including providing financial support and partnerships to developers.
This means that meme coins that are already established on other networks can find a safe haven on BNB Chain to attract new users or offer additional features. Whether it’s to take advantage of greater liquidity, ease of integration with Binance, or simplify the investor’s life, migrating or being accessible via BNB Chain is a strategy that can boost their growth.
1. Dogecoin (DOGE)
It's impossible to talk about meme coins without mentioning Dogecoin. Created in 2013 as a joke, DOGE has achieved an almost mythical status after the interest of public figures such as Elon Musk. Although it was born on the Litecoin network and not on the BNB Chain, it can now be easily traded through Binance, taking advantage of the advantages of the BNB ecosystem.
In 2025, Dogecoin continues to be a symbol of community power in the crypto world. If Binance further encourages DOGE liquidity and integration via BNB Chain, it could create a favorable environment for new side projects, staking, or even simpler bridges between wallets.
DOGE’s charisma and visibility remain strong, and many investors still see it as a “gateway” to crypto.
2. Shiba Inu (SHIBA)
Shiba Inu emerged as the “Dogecoin killer” and quickly became a phenomenon. With a huge and active community, SHIB went beyond a simple meme and developed an ecosystem with DeFi solutions, NFTs and even its own blockchain, Shibarium.
By migrating some of its liquidity and accessibility to the BNB Chain, SHIB could expand its reach. By 2025, the discerning investor could benefit from more attractive liquidity pools, more stable trading pairs, and perhaps integrations with projects in the BNB ecosystem. The versatility of Shiba Inu, combined with the ease of use of the BNB Chain, could make SHIB even more attractive.
3. Baby (BABY)
Pepe Coin has arrived on the crypto market, transforming the classic Pepe the frog meme into a digital asset. Even though it is not a “cat or dog”, PEPE won over the public in 2024 and promises to remain relevant in 2025. Its origin is linked to Ethereum, but nothing prevents its presence on the BNB Chain from growing.
If PEPE can find new uses on BNB Chain platforms — whether through farm pools, token burning, gaming or integrations with DApps — it can benefit from the network's lower transaction costs. The PEPE community is lively, and if any news or strong narrative emerges, the price could skyrocket quickly.
4. Bonk (BONK)
Bonk (BONK) has gained popularity in the Solana ecosystem, being one of the first meme coins to gain prominence on that network. In 2025, migrating or extending its presence to the BNB Chain could be a smart strategy. BONK, despite its comedic tone, has already demonstrated the ability to generate waves of enthusiasm.
This could lead to an upside, especially if BONK finds additional utility, such as partnerships with other DeFi projects or NFTs on the BNB Chain.
5. Floki (FLOKI)
FLOKI emerges as a link between the world of memes and projects with a greater purpose. The currency, inspired by Elon Musk's character's dog and the Viking theme, sought to add value beyond the joke, investing in marketing, sponsorships and the development of its own ecosystem.
In 2025, FLOKI could look to BNB Chain as a platform to expand its use cases, explore DeFi products, and integrate with established projects. FLOKI, which has traditionally stood out for its community engagement and partnerships, could benefit from the network’s liquidity and ease of adoption by Binance users.
Meme Coins: Attention and Strategy
Despite the potential, it’s worth remembering that meme coins are extremely volatile and often rely on hype and marketing campaigns. This means that a move or announcement can make the price skyrocket or plummet in the blink of an eye.
Before investing, research the token: check if the community is active, if there are concrete development plans, if the token contract is audited and if the liquidity is adequate. BNB Chain has advantages, but it is also not free from risks and scams. Be prepared for sudden fluctuations.
Also, diversify your investments. Don’t put all your capital into a single meme coin. Consider balancing your portfolio with more solid projects with clear fundamentals, while reserving only a fraction for speculation in meme tokens.
Meme coins and BNB Chain: a profitable combination!
In 2025, BNB Chain shows potential to become a fertile environment for meme coins, benefiting from its agility, low fees and the Binance ecosystem. Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Pepe, Bonk and Floki are some of the names that could shine on the network, either by expanding their user base or exploring new features and integrations.
However, success is not guaranteed. Meme coins remain risky bets, often driven by market sentiment. If you pay attention, do your homework, and keep your feet on the ground, you may find interesting opportunities — or at least enjoy the unusual mix of humor, internet culture, and blockchain technology.
